So i donwloaded the beta vista and it is sitting on my desktop and when i open it, it contains like 10 different icons...my question is how exactly do i burn this, do i drag those icons into toast titanium under data and hit burn? Now i dont think that is the right way but im not sure what is...

Do not mount it. Open 'Disk Utility' in the Applications/Utilities folder and click the Burn icon. Navigate to the .iso and you are ready to go. Microsoft recommends 1X burning; I did 2X and had no problems but make sure you check the verify after burning option.

it's kinda ironic for me because i just finished downloading it on my iMac. I went to mount it and i got a kernal panic.... haven't had a kernal panic since i got this machine 10/05

Vista must be buggier than we thought!! :p
